Title: Method for producing a surface structure on an implant, and such an implant
Inventor: HALL JAN
IPC: A61F2/30
Filed: 2002-12-18
Abstract: A surface structure is produced on an outer surface of an implant or a fixture and forms a base structure in a range of implants related to different types and qualities of jaw bone. During production of the surface, parts of a turning tool are placed against the implant or against a blank which is intended to form the implant. The parts and/or the implant are assigned controls which give rise to mutual displacements between the parts and the implant so that the parts follow a substantially spiral trajectory along the outer surface. By means of said controls, a long wave pattern is formed with successive peaks and with through lying between these. In this connection, a through can be arranged adjacent to the outer parts of an existing thread. The controls are chosen so as to produce through depths in the range of 25 to 250 ~m, preferably 50 to 200 ~m. The invention also relates to an implant which has the same character as the implant produced by the method.

Patent CA-2484593-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GREZ JOSEPH W
IPC: H02K33/00
Filed: 2003-04-25
Abstract: The apparatus for converting side-to-side to rotational motion for a workpie ce includes a spring assembly with a movable base mounting element which is driven in a slightly arcuate reciprocal side-to-side motion and a fixed mounting element spaced apart from the base element and mounted in the appliance so that it does not rotate or move in operation of the apparatus. A spring member, such as two planar leaf springs positioned at an angle to eac h other, is mounted between the movable base element and the fixed mounting element. A drive shaft member extends from the movable base element through the fixed mounting element and beyond. A workpiece such as a brushhead is mounted on the distal end of the drive shaft. The spring member is configure d so that it is substantially less resistant to twisting action than bending action, such that the side-to-side motion of the base element results in rotation of the workpiece. A method for tuning resonant spring assembly systems used in appliances such as power toothbrushes, particularly leaf spring systems, includes the step of measuring the frequency-dependent amplitude of the appliance workpiece, and then removing a portion of the spring member so as to decrease its spring rate sufficiently that the resona nt frequency of the spring member closely approximates the drive frequency of t he appliance.

Title: Interferometric microwave radar method
Inventor: EINEDER MICHAEL
IPC: G01S7/00
Filed: 2004-11-26
Abstract: Phase ambiguities measured in an interferometric microwave radar method are resolved by phase unwrapping in the form of analyzing two interferograms based on different wavelengths, from which a so-called delta k interferogram is obtained having a substantially greater wavelength serving as a value for estimating the absolute phase without further unwrapping. For this purpose, two trains of radar transmission pulses are generated at the transmitter end operated in separate different wavelength ranges and each pulse of which is always emitted simultaneously or sequenced in time in thus forming together a train of two-wavelength pulses. At the receiver end the received signal spectrum is split into two sub-bands each containing one of the two different wavelength ranges, and the interferograms materializing in these two sub-bands are added to result in the delta k interferogram which is then employed as the value for estimating the absolute phase and thus also the absolute distance measured value for the pixels.        Applications in generating elevation models and in aerospace sensing object and flow velocities.
